My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Not to mention that when Mr. Cheng got the grain seeds, he went back and compared them with other grain seeds he found, even the tribute rice grain seeds specially provided by the palace. This issue.

He only said that the Xu family was well prepared and decided to set off early the next morning.

There were more than a dozen vehicles loaded with people and belongings, and together with the guards and attendants, the huge group looked really spectacular.

But this is not conspicuous at all. After all, which wealthy family in Beijing would not have such a big battle if they returned to their hometown for a long trip?
Some people are even more exaggerated than this.

Mother Wen and her daughter knew that they were leaving today, so they came to see them off in a carriage early.

Since Xu Yinyin was injured and recuperating, she has not been out of the house very much. Mother and daughter Wen were also afraid of disturbing her recovery, so they only came here once or twice. Unlike the usual gatherings before, Xu Yinyin had to return to Beijing after the New Year. I'm back in Beijing, and I can't see him for a few months. Thinking about it, I really can't bear to leave.

Anyway, mother and daughter were fine, so they thought they could just go all the way to the city gate. In order to talk to Xu Yinyin for a while, mother and daughter directly got into Xu Yinyin's carriage and let their own carriage follow behind.

Xu Yinyin and Zhang Xiulan were riding in a carriage, and in the carriage were two maids, Forsythia and Ruixiang. As soon as Wen and her daughter came up, Forsythia and the two went to the carriage behind Aunt Huang and his wife.

The group of people left Lin'anfang and headed for the South City Gate.

After crossing Zhuque Street, they encountered a large group of Su Guards hurriedly heading in one direction. Pedestrians on the street retreated. Seeing this situation, the convoy temporarily stepped aside to wait for this group of Su Guards to pass by first.

Xu Yinyin lifted the curtain and took a look, and couldn't help but wonder, "What happened?"

Wen glanced at the Su Weijun running past through the gap, and then said: "It's still about the Qingping Sect. The emperor asked Mr. Hong to conduct a thorough investigation. Didn't he copy a code from Guanglu Temple a few days ago?" Is this the family? I heard that a lot of things were found out from the mouth of this Dianshi. One of the most important things is that this Qingping sect member has marks on his arms. It involves many people. The guards are probably going to arrest people."

Xu Yinyin listened and thought that the matter with the mark on the arm was not found out through trial. It was she who had someone tell the Shuntian Prefecture Yin.

Seeing the large group of guards turning the corner, Xu Yinyin lowered the curtain.

This Qingping sect has a lot of involvement, and they even want to ruin the palace banquet and extend their hands into the palace. The higher-ups will definitely not tolerate it. This time, the capital will be lively for a while.

When we get together, there is always a separation. Soon, they arrived at the city gate. Zheng Suyue pulled Xu Yinyin and her eyes turned red from crying. She really couldn't bear to let her go. If it weren't for Wen's pull, the little girl almost wanted to follow Xu Yinyin back to Yiyang Mansion. Have some fun.

Xu Yinyin smiled and comforted her. It was not like she would never come back. She would be back in a few months. By then, she would be attending her birthday party.

Zheng Suyue reluctantly followed Mr. Wen out of the carriage and watched the motorcade leave the city and drift away.

As soon as the carriage left the city, it set foot on a smooth and smooth cement road. The carriage drove on this cement road with no bumps at all, just like walking on it.

Old Man Xu and others couldn't help but lift the car curtain to take a look. Looking at such a concrete road, their eyes almost popped out.

Seeing the pedestrians walking on this road carrying burdens and baskets, with their relaxed steps, I couldn't help but want to go for a walk and feel what it was like to walk on the cement road. Feel it.

Look at it like this, it must be easy to walk, and it won’t take much time on your legs.

Not to mention, even the carriage moves much faster.Along the way, I could hear passers-by talking about the cement road. Some of them were shocked and confused for the first time. After asking others, they knew what the cement road was about, and they couldn't help but praise it. Long live the emperor, and at the same time he did not forget to praise the county master.

Old Man Xu and others all knew that this cement cube was presented to the emperor by their children. Listening to the comments of passers-by, their faces could not help but show a look of pride.

However, Zhang Xiulan lamented that this road was much more comfortable than the previously compacted loess road, and at the same time couldn't help but mutter that it was still not as good as the asphalt roads of later generations.

When Wen's mother and daughter went down, Xu Yinyin didn't let Forsythia and the two sit back. They were the only ones in the car, so there was no need to avoid suspicion when talking.

But there is a driver outside, so the voice should be lowered.

Xu Yinyin couldn't help but said: "Of course it can't compare. It's just this road. If trucks and cars come to take a walk, it won't take long for it to be crushed."

This unreinforced concrete is not as strong as later generations, but it is still important to carry carriages. It can be maintained at any time and it will not be a problem for three to five years.

She had asked her father to mention it to the Ministry of Works before. She heard that the Ministry of Works had set up a special official affairs department, which was responsible for the maintenance of official channels.

This cement road is not as good as those of later generations, but it is many times better than the official road of the past.

Not only was it not bumpy, but the distance was also much faster. It used to take three days to get from Beijing to Licheng, but now it only takes two days.

This is because they did not travel in a hurry. If they had traveled in a hurry, it would have been faster.

There is always no shortage of people taking boats at Baichuan Pier. With so many people like them, they must charter a boat, and small boats are not available. Waiting there to find a boat would be a waste of time.

Therefore, Xu Chunshan sent He Gui and his people to leave Beijing and go to Licheng to plan their trip. As soon as they entered Licheng, He Gui and his people were waiting at the gate of the city. He went up to see the ceremony, and then Take the group to settle in the inn that has been booked.

The boat is also packed, but it is getting late now, so we will rest in Licheng for one night and board the boat early tomorrow morning.

Xu Yinyin rode the carriage for two days. Although it was not bumpy, she was still very tired. After dinner, she washed up and went to bed early.

After a good night's sleep, I got up early the next morning, had breakfast, and headed to Baichuan Pier.

People coming from south to north, Baichuan Pier is full of people every day, and there are so many people like dumplings. Even though she has seen it several times, Xu Yinyin still feels shocked.

The boats one after another, the endless river, the men carrying big bags, the loud chants——

Each one makes people sigh with excitement.

This kind of scenery cannot be compared with the prosperous cities of later generations.

The group of people boarded the ship one after another, each chose a room to settle down, and then waited for the carriage and luggage to board the ship one by one. The sails were raised, the ship sailed, and slowly left the pier, sweeping the magnificent Baichuan River. The pier gradually faded away, becoming a dot until it was no longer visible.
